<p>[QUOTE="gregsglass, post: 66970, member: 78"]Hi,</p><p> I used to love it to. I had a bad experence once though. I was going through a house that was to be torn down that morning. I was in the attic going through several trunks. I had several half dolls from the 20s and a gorgeous frame that was bronze over wood ala Boulle. I started to feel strange like something was crawling on my head. I reached up and realized that there were 100s of wasps crawling all over my head. To normal people that would have caused a panic. To me who is seriously allergic to wasp stings the scene was right out of a horror movie. I looked for the staircase as the wasps were crawling down my face, I could hardly see the staircase. I managed to stumble to the stairs and fell down the staircase. I was on the third floor by then. I managed to get to the ground floor and fled down the street. As I was doing the 3 minute mile, the wasps slowly dropped off and I could see again. When I did stop I was shaking so hard and unable to breathe, realizing I had dropped every thing in my pockets, keys, wallet and change and my Epipen. I still had the dolls and the picture frame clutched in my hands. Once the world once again came into focus, I realized that I had NOT been stung. What kind of strange wasps were they?</p><p>greg[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
